Who is hiding behind the nickname Chris Marlowe II? August 16, a Sunday, was a day to never forget… My Grim Stalker hijacked some of my blogs and accounts, and the question remains: is this a game or not?
The day started with Lauren Axelrod asking herself in an article if Chris Marlowe II is the Puppet Master or the Player? Several of her friends contacted her about the stalking and she had to recognize, after close to a year now writing on Triond, she never ever had run into a genuine Troll that mocked her sensibility in this way and made accusations of such bizarre proportions. In the comment section of her article Lucas Dié posed the question if Marlowe wasn’t considered one of the seven eternals to wander the world? “The other of the seven I do remember,” he said, “is the Comte de St.Germain…”

And then, all sorts of things started to happen. One Tina G. published an article on Squidoo, “How To Start Your Own Alternate Reality Game” stating it really is a piece of cake. She pretends to be the Puppet Master who is pulling the strings of all the Puppets, and one of them – a Real Character of her choice – seems to be me. You have to be sure that he – or she – knows something about what you as a Puppet Master are up to, she says. And, well, I am a producer of murder and mystery games… According to Tina G., Chris Marlowe II is “a virtual character” of her invention, but the real Bad Ass seems to be someone else.
What worries me the most is that Tina G. predicted what must have happened a few hours later. First, the Murder & Mystery Game Blog I used the past months mostly for publishing my articles on historical mysteries, was hacked by Chris Marlowe II, aka Your Favorite Ghostwriter and/or Your Spamming Plagiator. He published some excerpts on it of the “online quarrel” I had with one Jaylemurph, who called me a “happy little plagiarist” and a “third rate fringe author”. And there was a reference to the guy who recently not only spammed me but also plagiarised me. Do we have to seek the real Puppet Master here?
Not more than minutes later, I discovered my Associated Content account was “hijacked” by Chris Marlowe II, aka Patricia Bernauw - my Soul Sister, so it seems, ’cause “you’re never alone with a schizophrenic”. It was already said on Facebook that me – as a young man – and Christopher Marlowe are some sort of lookalikes.
Meanwhile, Chris Marlowe II published “a Portrait of the Third Rate Fringe Author as a Young Man” on his Triond Site, plus an article concerning his Favorite Triond Authors and a new poem: Your Grim Stalker.
And that’s it, I think.

Interesting conjecture, but is it pertinent?
So far, I have found no real proof that ‘Chris Marlowe II’ and ‘Your Spamming Plagiator’ are in fact the same person. A comparison of writing/commenting styles used showes two persons rather than one are behind these accounts. Too me it seems that Your Spamming Plagiator is plagiarising Chris Marlowe II. But will either of the two dare to admit that they are only used by the Puppetmaster?

I’m together in a Joint Venture with Your Favorite Ghostwriter. He easily adapts all sorts of styles… Otherwise he wouldn’t be a Ghostwriter, would he?

That’s it? Don’t think so. This is just the beginning, you know… The beginning of… Your Freakin’ End!!!

Who knows who this person is, but it sure is fun trying to find out!
